congrats to all
A rave review from Ben Brantley. Surly this will win the Tony for best play. I am sure it will break the most play category wins and nominations in the categories that it can be nominated

Stuff money cannot pay for

Just FYI, link doesn't work for me.

I looked up the review though, it sounds amazing, I'd like to go sometime. Though the two part commitment is a little daunting, that'd be a long day!

Honestly, I thought the book sucked. I would like to see it on stage, though. Anything set in the Potter world is magical. But, the Cursed Child?

I saw it last weekend. It really deserves rave reviews. Despite having read the screenplay, DD(15) and I gasped and got teary eyed in all the right places.

It was really long. Afterwards, I told DD that I thought I would have done better with two consecutive nights, but she liked that she didn't have time to forget anything between the two parts.

I wasn't a huge fan of the screenplay because of its treatment of time in a way that I felt was inconsistent with the 3rd book. It was much, much better in stage format though. I was easily able to get past my hangup and just enjoy being back in the magical world for a day.
